I guess cause there aren't many for sale locally, I'm usually at the mercy of eBay. I'd like to buy an extra pair to tint, do you want to sell me a set? lol

I understand the rarity of them, which is makes the price-tag partially reasonable, but its still ridiculously overpriced.

if youre asking me for a set of tail lights, I tinted them all and resold them. I only have a set of new edge tails left.

The verticals look better. Color match the bezels and keep them with a sequential tail light kit.

I say paint the vertical bezels black and keep them, but also I'm partial to the verts. $30 for the pair is a good deal though.
You're getting ripped off if youre paying any more than that.

No way. I sold my old ones for 70. And when I went to buy white verts for my old 5.0 I was looking at 5.0 a piece.

If you have a 5.hoe put the horizontals back in. No need to give in to comformity to be like everyone else. Plus the horizontal tails makes your car look like it has a fat beefy ass.

the engine is what makes them unique, it's like a hybrid if you will.

wide rear wheels and tires make it look a lot more beefy than the taillights do imo. Horizontal tails on a stock wheel/tire car does not help with a wide look.

I believe the illusion of the horizontals making the car look wider is true to a point, but definitely not on a car of stock height and/or skinny tires.

I like the idea of keeping whatever came with the car, the way it is, but I'm not opposed to change. I've considered keeping horizontal sets that have passed through me. But I wouldnt run horizontals unless the car was dropped and had fat tires, unless the car was a 94-95 to begin with.

People always say "its the 5.0 signature" or the other way around for modulars, which is true, but you gotta remember, the v6 never changed to an OHC until 05, so its not like all 94/95's and all 96-98's tail lights identify what engine is in the car.
